HOPOW Flat Plug Power Strip 1700J surge protector 🔌
Description:
This ultra-thin HOPOW power strip brings extra outlets and fast charging to tight spaces without protruding far from the wall. With a low-profile flat plug and a slim 5 ft cord, this two-pack of surge protectors is convenient for behind sofas, media consoles, and compact home office setups while offering surge protection and multiple USB-C and USB-A ports for modern devices.
Key Points
The strip converts a single wall outlet into five AC sockets plus three USB ports, allowing you to power and charge several devices at once. The flat plug measures about 0.4 inches thick and has a 45-degree right-angle design, which helps avoid blocking a second receptacle and keeps the unit tucked close to the wall. The cord is notably thin and flexible, intended to run discreetly along baseboards or under rugs without creating bulk.
Each unit includes built-in USB charging that automatically adapts to connected devices for optimized charging up to the specified output. For added safety the power strip carries a 1700-joule surge protection rating to help guard computers, consoles, TVs, and other electronics against voltage spikes. The housing features two mounting holes so you can secure the strip to a wall or underside of a desk.

Advantages
This model reduces clutter by integrating three USB ports so you do not need separate wall chargers for phones and tablets. The slim profile of the plug and cable makes positioning furniture closer to the wall possible, which can free up floor space in smaller rooms. Having two identical units in the pack gives you flexibility to place one in a living area and another in a bedroom or workspace without buying extra strips.
One practical benefit is the 45-degree plug orientation that tends to keep duplex outlets usable when the strip is inserted. Also the thin cord is less visible and more manageable than bulky round cables, which helps maintain a cleaner look behind entertainment centers and desks.
Usage Recommendations
Place the strip where multiple devices are clustered, such as behind a TV stand, beside a desk, or near a bedside table. Use the included mounting holes to fasten the strip under a shelf or along a wall for a neater installation. Consider that the 1700-joule rating offers basic surge protection according to the manufacturer, and it may not replace a whole-home surge protector for severe electrical events. When routing the flat cord under rugs verify local safety guidance to avoid heat buildup.
